October Meeting Notice

“It is with a heavy heart that I take up my pen to write these last words…”                  
-- Doctor John Watson in “The Final Problem.”      

We hope your heart will be lighter than the good doctor’s so that you will join us for an afternoon of comestibles and conviviality at the fall meeting of The Amateur Mendicant Society of Detroit.

Sunday, October 5, 2014 at 12:30 p.m.
Pasquale’s Restaurant
31555 Woodward, Royal Oak, MI                                              
Restaurant phone: (248) 549-4002
                                                   
Our assigned story is “The Final Problem,” which combines The Master (Sherlock Holmes), his dastardly arch-nemesis Professor Moriarty and a certain deadly waterfall in Switzerland.

Our presentation, by member Al Calderini, will be “Memorable Moriartys of the Media,” a comprehensive look at those who have so famously played the arch-villain on stage and screen.

We’ll also have the usual toasts, plus prizes and more so we hope to see you on October 5, 2014.
NOTE: Please make checks payable to: Amateur Mendicant Society of Detroit.

To join us, please mail your check for $25 per person by FRIDAY, SEPT. 26th to:
